Hybrid View

Toolbar button anchor link

I'm fairly new to the Sencha Touch API. I'm trying to do something that it's fairly easily accomplished in other Javascript APIs such as JQuery and Mootools, but I'm struggling to get this issue worked out.

I have a panel with several elements, one of which is a bit of text combined with an anchor link, for example:

This works just fine as long as the app is not started from the "home screen".

If I run the application by going to it in Safari - the "document.location = "http://www.netflix.com/WiPlayer?movieid=123456789" solution works. From the "home screen" however, I get a funky error message from the target server. The target url renders up to a point - then presents an alert message that it "Cannot open [home screen icon name here]".

These are all details I should have provided in the beginning. Sorry about that. It was well before my daily allotment of coffee.
